< Esther 5 >

1 And it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on royal apparel, and stood in the inner court of the king's house, over against the king's house. And the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the entrance to the house.
Hahoi, apâthum hnin nah, Esta ni siangpahrang puengcang a kho teh siangpahrang im kalupnae thungvah a kangdue. Siangpahrang teh takhang hoi kadangka lah a bawitungkhung dawk a tahung.
2 And it was so, when the king saw the queen Esther standing in the court, that she obtained grace in his sight; and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand; and Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.
Hahoi, siangpahrangnu Esta teh siangpahrang imthung kalupnae thung a kangdue e hah siangpahrang ni a hmu navah, a lathueng vah a lunghawi dawkvah siangpahrang ni sui sonron a sin e hah Esta koelah a dâw pouh. Hatdawkvah, Esta ni a vâ a hnai teh siangpahrang e sonron hah dek a tek pouh.
3 And the king said to her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what is thy request? it shall be given thee even to the half of the kingdom.
Siangpahrang ni, A yu Esta koe bangmaw na ngai, ka uknaeram a tangawn totouh hai na poe han, telah atipouh.
4 And Esther said, If it seem good to the king, let the king and Haman come this day to the banquet that I have prepared for him.
Esta ni, Siangpahrang nang ni ahawi na tetpawiteh, bu sut kalawng e ven hanlah sahnin Haman hoi rei tho roi ei, telah atipouh.
5 And the king said, Hasten Haman, that it may be done as Esther has said. And the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
Siangpahrang ni, Esta ni a dei patetlah Haman karanglah kaw awh, telah atipouh. Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang hoi Haman teh Esta ni sut lawng e pawi koe bu ca hanlah a cei roi.
6 And the king said to Esther at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee; and what is thy request? even to the half of the kingdom it shall be done.
Misur bout neinae hmuen koevah, siangpahrang ni Esta, bangmaw hei han na ngai. Ka uknaeram a tangawn totouh na poe han, telah atipouh.
7 And Esther answered and said, My petition and my request is,
Esta ni ka ngai e hoi ka hei e teh het hah doeh.
8 If I have found grace in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to-morrow according to the king's word.
Siangpahrang minhmai kahawi ka hmu teh, ka heinae siangpahrang ni na poe hanlah na pasoung teh, kahei e hah kuepsak pawiteh, tangtho vah bu vennae koe Haman hoi bout tho roi ei, tangtho teh na dei e patetlah ka ngai e ka dei han toe telah atipouh.
9 And Haman went forth that day joyful and glad of heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he stood not up nor moved for him, he was full of fury against Mordecai.
Hatdawkvah, Haman teh hote hnin navah lunghawi ca lahoi a tâco. Hatei, Haman ni siangpahrang thongma kalupnae longkha e a hmalah, Mordekai ni bari laihoi thaw hoeh, kâroe laipalah ao e hah a hmu navah, Mordekai koe puenghoi a lungkhuek.
10 But Haman controlled himself, and came home; and he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.
Hatei, Haman teh a kâ cakuep laihoi a im vah a ban. A hui hoi a yu Zeresh hah a kaw sak.
11 And Haman told them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all wherein the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king.
Hatdawkvah, Haman ni a bawilennae hoi a bawirengnae kong hoi, ca catoun moi a tawnnae kong, siangpahrang ni a tawm teh thaw ka rasang a poenae naw puenghoi alouknaw hlakvah ka rasang poung lah a tanae kong naw hah ahnimouh koevah a dei pouh.
12 And Haman said, Yea, Esther the queen let no man come in with the king to the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and to-morrow also I am invited to her with the king.
Hothloilah, siangpahrangnu Esta ni buvennae a sak e dawk kai laipalah siangpahrang koevah apihai kâpa sak hoeh. Tangtho vah siangpahrang hoi bout na coun rah.
13 Yet all this is of no avail to me so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.
Hatei, siangpahrang thongma kalupnae longkha koe ka tahung e Mordekai ka hmu nathung teh hetnaw pueng heh kai hanlah banghai cungkeihoeh, a ti.
14 Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends to him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and in the morning speak to the king that Mordecai may be hanged on it: then go in merrily with the king to the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made.
Hatdawkvah, a yu Zeresh hoi a hui naw pueng ni ahni koevah, Dong 50touh karasang e kaithinae hah sak sak nateh Mordekai hah kaithi sak hanlah amom vah siangpahrang koe dei pouh nateh buvennae koe vah lung kanawmcalah siangpahrang hoi rei cet roi haw atipouh awh. Hote lawk ni Haman a lungkuep sak teh kaithinae teh a sak sak.
